  • USB-C is power input only (for charging the powerbank), right? https://www.belkin.com/au/p/P-BPB004/

  • Please note the USB-C is used for charging the power bank, it still outputs via USB-A. So you need to bring/carry 2 cables if you want to be able to both charge the power bank and let it charge other devices. If I had many USB-C devices (ie Android user instead of iPhone), I would prefer a power bank that has USB-C as an input and output so you can just have one USB-C cable to carry around.

      Why? You can use the same A->C cable for charging the powerbank, and for powerbank to phone.

      Note this has NO USB-PD, so there is no reason to have a C->C cable.
      Of course, it is too small (18Whr? not specified) to bother with PD anyway. It is just an emergency phone charger.

      For not much more, you should be able to get a bigger powerbank with real USB-PD.

      • I guess it depends on what sort of wall charger(s) you use. I thought that most Androids these days came with PD C->C chargers. You're right though that you only need 1 cable if you're happy to charge the power bank A->C with a USB-A power brick.

        • I thought that most Androids these days came with PD C->C chargers.

          Well in that case, you'd most certainly want a powerbank with PD, not this.

          here is one: 20Ahr and 18W 2-Way Type-C Power Delivery: (prime free deliver, $29)

          That is so much better value (and others too), I have to say neg on the DJ deal. Bad price for small powerbank with no QC or PD.
          Sorry OP, it takes more than 30% RRP off to make Belkin a bargain.

          • @bargaino: Kbut i have to have prime, so its not a real comparison.

            @bargaino: Not everyone wants to bring a heavy 20Ah powerbank. I prefer to have a small and thin one (5-10Ah) that I can put on my pocket together with my phone. But I agree that this Belkin powerbank isn't a good deal.

  • Also at JB if easier for ppl

  • Hmm, 5000mAh banks are $15 at Officeworks, not sure why you’d spend almost double for this.

    As noted above, plenty of better and more capable battery banks about for similar money if you shop online too.
